You Know You’ll Get Stuck In Traffic In These 4 Beirut Spots

Dealing with traffic is a shared struggle for all of us. Unfortunately, it has become ingrained in our culture, making our daily commutes quite the adventure. Here are four spots where, no matter the time of day or night, you’re bound to get stuck in a tonne of traffic!

1. The Adlieh Roundabout: AKA the Bane of Legal Professionals’ Existence

Whether you’re a lawyer obligated to be in Adlieh or just an average Joe residing nearby, you will undeniably find yourself tangled in the madness. You better look left, right, up, down, and sideways before making a move.

2. Hamra, Hamra, Hamra

1 AM? 10 PM? 6 AM? Day off? Strike? January 1st? There will be traffic in Hamra.

3. Corniche El Mazraa

This road is a go-to for almost everyone since it leads to, well, pretty much everywhere—southward, Raouche, Achrafieh, etc. Expect to find yourself in a traffic standstill here.

4. All areas as soon as it rains

I don’t understand why rain seems to make people drive even worse than usual (if that’s even possible).
